Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Did you just know?

I am almost 16 weeks pregnant, had a CVS after an abnormal ultasound at 12 weeks, found out that my baby girl has abnormal chromosomes. The doctor called last night and told us that my husband and I have normal chromosomes and that there is no hope that the baby is not missing major information on her chromosomes. Most babies with this condition do not make it to birth, they usually do not even make it throught he first trimester.They also told us that at my last ultrasound she measured very small. My stomach has almost deflated in the past week, I am pretty certain she is gone. I go tomorrow to find out for sure. I want peace and closure and to let her rest. Did you just know when your little one had left you?

Re: Did you just know?

  • I'm sorry for your loss.  I don't know if I can really answer the question. I had a sac, that kept developing, but no baby. I never had any clue. I don't know when the embryo stopped developing.

  • I had no idea. I prayed all the time that everything was ok and was always worried about something going wrong because of my past. When I was going in for the US I was worried, just like I was with the first one, that there wouldn't be a heartbeat, but I think that I always thought that everything was okay until there was no heartbeat.  I was so bummed and couldn't believe it...
  • I am hoping for the best for you...but to answer your question, yes, looking back, i knew something wasn't right.  normally after the 12 week u/s and seeing the heartbeat two appts in a row i would start going crazy with baby stuff, and register, and buy at least 1-2 little outfits.  but this time, i just waited.  i wanted to wait until we reached the half way point.  we were going to order the furniture the weekend after my 6 month check up where we went over the results of the anatomy scan, which was on a wednesday (4 weeks ago yesterday).  the sunday before my husband and i were cleaning out the garage (well, i was supervising lol), and i had really bad pains, and cramping and had to go sit down.  i joked i wasn't even doing too much over exerting, but i guess i had to take it easy even more....according to the u/s that wednesday after the dr couldn't find a heartbeat he was 21 weeks and 1 day--the last time i had felt him move was saturday night.  we think that sunday was the day he left us.  but i do believe in just knowing---but i hope in this case i am wrong!!!!

  • I am so sorry - I hope that everything is ok. I knew something was wrong, in my gut, for practically the whole pregnancy, I think. The day I found out that he had left us, I really think I knew. Not that there were any real signs, just trusting my gut.

    Thinking of you.

  • YES I KNEW!!!!  Sad  I said to my Fiance that I didnt feel right, something was wrong.  There was no pain no bleeding and no decrease in symptoms.  boobs huge and sore and horrible acne along with being so tired.  I told my MW and she said that there was nothing to worry about and that it was just my mind.  Went in for an appointment on Wed Dec1st at 10w4d and she could not find the heart beat but told me that It was probably just a little too early.  I made her schedule an U/S but wasn't sched until the following Thursday.  That friday the 3rd I told him we had to go to the ER cause i just knew something was wrong and I could not wait till my U/S appt.  and my worst fear was confirsmed right when I was having that thought that something was not right was when my baby stopped growing,
